How have Wealthify Investment Plans performed?
The graph below shows how each of our investment styles - from Cautious to Adventurous - have performed between 29th February 2016 and 31st December 2025, after all fees have been taken (based on 0.60% p.a.

Ethical
Of course, we experienced the ups and downs of the market along the way and you could get back less than you put in. Although we cannot rely on past performance to predict future results investing for the long-term (5 years or more) typically delivers positive returns. These figures are after all fees have been taken (based on 0.60% p.a Wealthify management charge), and are based on the performance of Plans worth more than £100 and will be different for Plans below that amount.

Transferring an ISA?
Here are a few ISA rules to consider
- You can transfer any Cash ISAs or Stocks and Shares ISAs (Investment ISAs) you have with other providers in to a Wealthify Investment ISA.
- When you transfer an ISA to Wealthify, you should always use the official ISA transfer form to retain the ISA tax benefits.
- Transferring ISAs from previous tax years doesn’t impact your current ISA allowance, so you can still put up to £20,000 into an ISA this tax year.
Ethical investment
With Wealthify, investing for your future also means being able to invest in the planet's future at the same time.
That's why we've joined forces with best-in-class ethical fund providers, to create five Ethical Plans that let you invest in organisations committed to having a positive impact on society and the environment. All our fund providers are signatories of the Principles of Responsible Investing (PRI), the world’s leading proponent of responsible investing.
The actively managed ethical funds employed in plans keep a close eye on the organisations in which they invest - employing rigorous, ongoing screening to ensure ethical standards are maintained.
Keeping your money safe
We know the only thing more important than making your money work harder, is making sure it’s safe — here’s how we take care of yours.
Secure
Your login details will always be kept secure – but never shared with anyone else.

Our friendly Customer Care Team are always happy to help via email, Live Chat, or on 0800 802 1800.

Investment FAQs
You can open an ISA with Wealthify if you:
Are over 18
Are UK tax resident
When you’re building your Personal Investment Plan, the first question you will be asked is whether you would like to open an ISA or a General Investment Account. Select ‘ISA’ to create an Investment ISA Plan. Under the current rules, you can have as many ISAs of each type you want (excluding Lifetime ISAs and Junior ISAs), and you can split your annual ISA allowance between them however you like.
If you’re likely to exceed your ISA allowance, you can simply set up a General Investment Plan to invest additional funds. There’s no extra cost for having two or more Plans.
Our experts use a range of passive investment funds (like Mutual Funds) to build your Plan. An investment fund is a bundle of lots of individual assets (like stocks, bonds, or property) which you buy all in one go, making funds a cost-effective way to invest.
The mix of funds and investments in your Plan will depend on your attitude to risk. Low-risk Plans will contain a higher percentage of low-risk investments like bonds. Higher-risk Plans will include more shares. Since financial markets are always changing, we’ll make adjustments to the mix of investments in your Plan from time to time.
We’ve created five investment Plans – from Cautious to Adventurous – so you can choose a level of risk that’s right for you. Find out more about what’s in each of these Plans by downloading the Plan Factsheets below.

The following initial minimum deposits apply to each of our investment products.
Junior ISA: £500
Stocks and Shares ISA: £1,000
Personal Pension: £1,000
General Investment Account: £1,000
After opening your account, you can top-up (via one-off or regular monthly payments) a Junior ISA, Stocks and Shares ISA, and General Investment Account with £1 or more; Personal Pension payments need to be at least £50.
The ISA limit and maximum you can save each year is £20,000. The tax year runs from the 6th of April to 5th of April the following year. Under the current rules, you can have as many ISAs of each type you want (excluding Lifetime ISAs and Junior ISAs), and you can split your annual ISA allowance between them however you like.
Yes, you can withdraw funds from your ISA plan at any time, without penalty. Since both our Stocks and Shares ISA and Cash ISA are flexible, you can also withdraw and replace funds within the same tax year without affecting your annual ISA allowance.
For Stocks & Shares ISA, Junior ISA & General Investment Account
We are authorised by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) and investments in these accounts are held by Wealthify itself. This means that in the unlikely event of Wealthify facing insolvency, up to a maximum of £85,000 of your money may be protected under the FSCS.
For Self-Invested Personal Pension customers
Our trusted custodian for pensions, Embark Investment Services Limited, hold your assets separately from Wealthify. This means Embark may offer you up to £85,000 in FSCS protection in the unlikely event they should become insolvent.
All investment customers
The Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) covers the first £85,000 of your investments. However, it’s essential to understand that the FSCS doesn’t cover you if your investments don't perform as expected (and you get back less than you originally invested). For more information, visit www.fscs.org.uk/.
Along with the FSCS cover outlined above, the companies we work with (and Wealthify itself) are regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). All assets in our Stocks & Shares ISAs, Junior ISAs, General Investment Accounts, and Self-Invested Personal Pensions will be held in accordance with the FCA's Client Asset (CASS) rules. This means all parties hold your cash securely and separately from their own. For more information, please read Wealthify's Investment Terms and Conditions.
Yes, you can do an ISA transfer from your previous years' Investment ISAs, Innovative Finance ISAs, or Cash ISAs to another investment ISA provider at any time. Transfers don't impact your current year’s ISA allowance at all, so you can still invest this tax year’s full ISA limit as well as transfer existing ISAs over.
However, please ensure to use a transfer form. If you withdraw the money you pay in, you'll lose your tax-efficient benefits on that money. To arrange a transfer, simply create a Wealthify ISA Plan, then complete our simple ISA transfer form. We’ll arrange everything else.
If you’re an existing customer, simply head to your Dashboard and use the ‘transfer in’ button on your home screen. You can then choose whether you want to transfer your money into an existing Plan, or create a new one.
No, that’s what we’re here for. Tell us your investment style, theme and how much you want to invest, and we do everything else. Our Investment Team have pre-selected a range of passive funds, and programmed our automated investment system with algorithms (mathematical formulas) that build your Plan based on what you tell us your goals are.
Nothing at all. A Stocks and Shares ISA and an Investment ISA are just different names for tax-free investments.
